Comparative Value of 2-Hydroxyglutarate-to-Lipid and Lactate Ratio versus 2-Hydroxyglutarate Concentration on MR Spectroscopic Images for Predicting Isocitrate Dehydrogenase Mutation Status in Gliomas.

To compare the ability of 2-hydroxyglutarate (2HG)-to-lipid and lactate (2HG/[lipid + lactate]) ratio with the ability of 2HG concentration alone to predict the isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutation status in patients with glioma. In this retrospective study, consecutive patients with histopathologically proven glioma were enrolled between July 2016 and February 2019. A total of 79 patients were enrolled (mean age, 44 years; 49 men). The 2HG concentration and other MR spectroscopic parameters were measured by single-voxel point-resolved spectroscopy before surgery. The diagnostic performance of the 2HG concentration and 2HG/(lipid + lactate) ratio were calculated. Internal validation was assessed by the bootstrap approach with 1000 bootstrap resamples. Differences in the predictive accuracy of 2HG/(lipid + lactate) ratio and 2HG concentration were determined by calculating the integrated discrimination improvement. The diagnostic accuracy (sensitivity, specificity, and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve [AUC]) of these measures was also compared separately in patients with glioblastomas and patients with lower-grade gliomas. Of the 79 enrolled patients, 28 had IDH mutations and 51 had wild-type IDH. The sensitivity, specificity, and AUC of 2HG concentration for predicting IDH-mutant gliomas were 89% (25 of 28), 67% (34 of 51), and 0.80 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.70, 0.88; C statistic, 0.80), respectively. The sensitivity, specificity, and AUC of the 2HG/(lipid + lactate) ratio for predicting IDH-mutant gliomas were 79% (22 of 28), 92% (47 of 51), and 0.90 (95% CI: 0.81, 0.96; C statistics, 0.90), respectively. The optimal cutoff value for the 2HG/(lipid + lactate) ratio was 0.63. The 2HG/(lipid + lactate) ratio was significantly better for predicting IDH mutation status than the 2HG concentration alone (P < .01). In glioblastoma, the 2HG/(lipid + lactate) ratio was also better for predicting IDH mutations than the 2HG concentration alone, with borderline significance (P = .052). In lower-grade glioma, the 2HG/(lipid + lactate) ratio and the 2HG concentration showed comparable diagnostic performance (P = .72). The 2HG/(lipid + lactate) ratio is more accurate for predicting IDH mutation status in patients with glioma than the 2HG concentration alone.Keywords: Brain/Brain Stem, CNS, MR-Imaging, MR-Spectroscopy, Neoplasms-Primary, Neuro-Oncology© RSNA, 2020.

The diagnostic efficiency of integration of 2HG MRS and IVIM versus individual parameters for predicting IDH mutation status in gliomas in clinical scenarios: A retrospective study.

Currently, there remains a scarcity of established preoperative tests to accurately predict the isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutation status in clinical scenarios, with limited research has explored the potential synergistic diagnostic performance among metabolite, perfusion, and diffusion parameters. To address this issue, we aimed to develop an imaging protocol that integrated 2-hydroxyglutarate (2HG) magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) and intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) by comprehensively assessing metabolic, cellular, and angiogenic changes caused by IDH mutations, and explored the diagnostic efficiency of this imaging protocol for predicting IDH mutation status in clinical scenarios. Patients who met the inclusion criteria were categorized into two groups: IDH-wild type (IDH-WT) group and IDH-mutant (IDH-MT) group. Subsequently, we quantified the 2HG concentration, the relative apparent diffusion coefficient (rADC), the relative true diffusion coefficient value (rD), the relative pseudo-diffusion coefficient (rD*) and the relative perfusion fraction value (rf). Intergroup differences were estimated using t-test and Mann-Whitney U test. Finally, we performed receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and DeLong's test to evaluate and compare the diagnostic performance of individual parameters and their combinations. 64 patients (female, 21; male, 43; age, 47.0 ± 13.7 years) were enrolled. Compared with IDH-WT gliomas, IDH-MT gliomas had higher 2HG concentration, rADC and rD (P < 0.001), and lower rD* (P = 0.013). The ROC curve demonstrated that 2HG + rD + rD* exhibited the highest areas under curve (AUC) value (0.967, 95%CI 0.889-0.996) for discriminating IDH mutation status. Compared with each individual parameter, the predictive efficiency of 2HG + rADC + rD* and 2HG + rD + rD* shows a statistically significant enhancement (DeLong's test: P < 0.05). The integration of 2HG MRS and IVIM significantly improves the diagnostic efficiency for predicting IDH mutation status in clinical scenarios.
